The América football club has made an offer of 8 million dollars for the Brazilian player Rony Barbosa, according to reports from local media in Mexico. Although negotiations are advanced, the club still needs to free up a foreign player slot to finalize the signing. A response from Richard Sánchez to Racing of Argentina is expected in the next few hours, which would trigger the formalization of Barbosa's transfer to América.
Rony Barbosa, whose full name is Ronielson da Silva Barbosa, was born on May 11, 1995, in Magalhães Barata, Pará. He began his professional career at Remo and has played for clubs such as Cruzeiro, Náutico, Atlético Paranaense, and currently plays for Palmeiras. With two Copa Libertadores titles, two local leagues, and a Copa Sudamericana title to his name, Barbosa is known in South America for his dribbling skills, speed, and scoring efficiency.
América, which has had a good start in the Clausura 2025 alongside Tigres, is preparing to make a signing that will strengthen its attack in search of conquering the four-time championship and the CONCACAF Champions Cup. The player that the Mexican club is about to sign is Rony Barbosa, who currently plays for Palmeiras in the Brazilian league. Barbosa will bring dynamism and versatility to América's attack, being able to perform as a winger, center forward, or false nine on the field.
